Pray for Paris? How Specifically?

Posted in Uncategorized by Paul M. Dohse Sr. on November 14, 2015

Per the usual in these situations, we see a call to pray, but not for anything in particular. I do pray for Paris; specifically, that they will repent of their insane politically correct policies that lead their people to the slaughter. So, this refugee thing; news is already coming out that these guys came from Syria. Listen, guilt over privilege is no reason to sacrifice our children; ie., we have to let these people in because they aren’t privileged and we are. Really? The conditions of these countries are a cause and effect issue. You worked to be “privileged” in a government philosophy/system that many have given their lives for. Elections have consequences, and political philosophies are not mere opinions, they are matters of life and death. Unfortunately, as one expert noted last night albeit crassly, many more people will have to yet die before people get a grip. However, many, even in our culture, think that we deserve terrorism because of our “privilege.” This is just lovers of death trying to con the lovers of life to embrace their worldview. Pray for that; pray that Paris will begin to choose life.

And this has a personal application as well. Christians call for prayer in difficult situations without any concern for truth and consequences. This is primarily rooted in a worldview that sees God as tolerant of evil, and prayer beckons for Him to do something good that we don’t deserve. It’s a fatalistic mindset. There is no truth or consequences—there is no choosing death over life.

But, in fact, we must continually choose life over death, and do our part on every level of life experience.

I was just discussing this with the kids last night. It is important they understand modern French history even going back to Dryeyfus affair.

It is almost impossible for people to really understand that historically Catholics and Protestants have been perpetrators of horrid anti semitism.

France prided itself on helping Muslims…starting with Palestinians…back when they were simply called Arabs. They did not even welcome the French Algerian Jews who we kicked out when Islam took over decades ago.

They are reaping their political correctness ( but not toward Jews!) of Islam. Just as we will.

For an interesting resource, Google Pierre Rehov. He has been making documentaries about this problem since VHS.
